Mike,

I used to use TikiWiki for a hobby related site and while it has a ton of very nice features, it also had some bad security problems. The server it was on was hacked several times through it. The last time it was hacked, we lost the database which really sucked.

About 2 years ago, we switched to Drupal and haven't had any problems since. Function-wise, they are similar except Drupal doesn't have fine grained role based security out of the box (at least of version 5, I haven't looked at version 6 yet). There are a bunch of big sites that use it that have overcome this problem so there are likely plug-ins to handle better security.

Is anyone doing any Wiki software support via Zend PHP? I'm just
starting to work on this and will be investigating the Zend forums
shortly.



My shortlist of servers right now are MediaWiki (Wikipedia), PMWiki, and
TikiWiki. I'm aware of some people running PMWiki on the Zend PHP
server but nothing else. Found a nice site called WikiMatrix that does
a very extensive job on collating information for all the Wiki software
out there.



We are looking at Wiki server for internal documentation and then we
will see from there. Features that I have thought of so far:



WYSIWYG Editing

LDAP authentication

Roles based security/ACL

Database Storage

Multi-Language Support

Page history

Page revisions



Beyond that I will have to look at the WikiMatrix information to see if
there is something else I need.
